This bra and Panache Tango Plunge are my favourite bras at the moment. Tango gives a more natural shape, but Fancies is much more rounded and uplifted.

I think the under wire is a great length for me, I do wish it was a hair more 'swoop' shaped than U shaped because I get some wrinkles at the bottom of the cup, but it doesn't affect the support really, just a cosmetic issue.

I don't really love the lace or the fabric on the plain Freya Fancies styles, I think the lace pattern is pretty boring and I think the fabric is a bit stiff, but I suppose that's how it gives support. Don't expect this bra to be super soft!

I also don't love the 1 hook fastening, I think it could do with at least 2, but I think Freya does other plunge-balconies that do feature 2 hooks, which is a direction I'm going to go in next.

I'm even fullness, average/wide width, average projection, average height roots and I think this bra fits me well!

Honestly, I'm so relieved to find a well fitting and COMFY bra that I can put all those dislikes out of the way.

EDIT: I tried this bra on with an extender after realising the band was feeling very tight, and I have wrinkles on the top of the cup near my arm pit. I am too short rooted for this bra and the wires are much too wide, I don't feel supported.

• Have you considered trying Fantasie brand? They have the same parent company as Freya and are similar, but I found them to be far more comfortable when I was wearing a similar size (32G) with fewer wire pains.

  I've had a look at Fantasie before but wasn't sure what style to get. I'll have a look, thank you so much! :-)

• I usually got the side support style if it helps. :-)
